Their Thoughts

My thoughts belong to others
I own only a subscription
My head reproduces the pastthis line seems kind off odd/ out of context
I whisper footnotes after I speak
The great men of the past speak through memaybe change the word speak? And shorten this line.
I try to hide from themthis line just seems to simple, and looks plain in the light of the rest of the poem
They are leather bound black and white ghoststake out "black and white"
They haunt my writing

Overall, I was left decently confused by this poem. The first two lines (my favorite lines) almost seem to tell a different story than the rest, and I wish you would go further with that idea.... Aside from that, you might want to add some sort of punctuation, and change your capitalization. I really do like the idea, and i think you could tweak this and capitlize on that idea real well
